Pax8 and Bitdefender Announce New Partnership

Here what Ryan Waslh, chief channel officer at Pax8 said: “Touted as the world’s best antivirus by security software testing, we are thrilled to offer our partners Bitdefender Cloud Security for MSPs and add-on products.” “As cyberattacks continue to rise, it is critical for partners to provide robust cloud security stacks to their clients. With the addition of Bitdefender’s cloud security solutions—custom-built for the MSP—partners can fully protect customers against ransomware, zero-day malware, fileless attacks, and other sophisticated threats with one agent, managed from a single console.”

Bitdefender won AV-Comparatives’ Product of the Year award last year for the fourth time, racking up more wins than any other firm in the past 10 years. The latest award comes after Bitdefender earned the maximum Advanced+ ratings in tests conducted throughout 2019 covering Malware Protection, Performance, Advanced Threat Protection, and other categories.

In addition to Bitdefender Cloud Security for MSPs, Pax8 partners can access and sell the company’s single agent solution with add-on products through their GravityZone MSP security platform, including Email security, Security for Exchange, Patch Management, Full Disk Encryption, Security for Virtual Servers, Advanced Threat Security, and Endpoint Detection Response. Through the Pax8 portal, partners can see and easily manage daily product usage that can also be automatically synced with their preferred PSA tool.

They have a unique offering, that can help MSPs and their end-users implement a complete security posture with their add-ons, and one agent.
